'Trying to get fired! - Arsenal fans can't believe what Unai Emery has done against Frankfurt

Unai Emery's team selection for this evening's Europa League fixture against Eintracht Frankfurt has got a number of Arsenal fans talking.

As expected there is no room for Mesut Özil or Sokratis who have both been left at home for this clash.

Furthermore, Rob Holding is not included in the matchday squad despite making the trip to Germany.

That means David Luiz retains his place in the starting XI.

In total Emery has made seven changes to the side which drew 2-2 against Watford at the weekend as Emiliano Martinez, Shkodran Mustafi and Calum Chambers are drafted into the starting XI on matchday one of the new Europa League campaign.

There are also starts for Lucas Torreira as well as young duo Emile Smith Rowe and Bukayo Saka who will offer support to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

Arsenal line-up: Martinez; Mustafi, Chambers, Luiz, Kolasinac; Xhaka, Torreira, Willock; Smith Rowe, Aubameyang, Saka
